Pros

Lots of support from upper management, tons of potential for growth, and the company really invests the time and energy in trying to improve culture and processes to keep doctors and staff happy.

Cons

A work/life balance is difficult to obtain in this industry, but I don’t think it’s worse at VCA than at other companies.
